Tried it with teracopy but that didn't work for me.
By copying the song folders from the tablet to the PC, in chunks of around 200, and using the batch converter dBpoweramp to compress mp3s to 64 kbit/s, then deleting the folders on the tablet and copy the ones from the PC, now with compressed mp3s, back to the tablet, the library was reduced from 10.7 to 3.4 gb. The whole process took 90 minutes, incl. bug fixes:
Only very few glitches, a compression failed here and there, or MSP didn't find the pdf and mp3 of a song, but that was easy to fix.
I don't notice loss in quality through the tablet speakers.
To handle 3.4 instead of 10.7 gb is significantly easier.
Thanks again.
